I suppose those of us in the East are lucky - here the bears only look at what we carry as potential food sources (unless we do something really stupid to provoke them) - with some grizzly and polar bear populations WE are potential food sources as well!

Other things to consider - deoderant, after shave, perfume, scented soaps and shampoo - are all no-no's in bear country - (I don't understand why anyone would drag them into the backcountry BUT I seem to meet up with people who do on a fairly regular basis ....) -
